ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the application value of diffusion-weighted imaging with background suppression (DWIBS) in lymph node metastasis of rectal cancer.Methods 30 patients with rectal cancer diagnosed by colonoscopy underwent routine MRI and DWIBS examinations.Metastatic and non-metastatic lymph nodes were confirmed by postoperative pathology.Apparent diffu-sion coefficient (ADC)values of the solid part of metastatic and non-metastatic lymph nodes were measured and compared.ROC curve analysis was used to define the threshold between the metastatic and non-metastatic lymph nodes.Results In all 73 lymph nodes,there were 52 metastatic lymph nodes and the other 21 were non-metastatic.ADC values of the solid part of metastatic and non-metastatic lymph nodes were (0.881 ± 0.094)× 10 -3 mm2/s and (1.072 ± 0.108)×10 -3 mm2/s respectively,the difference was statistically significant (P <0.05).With the threshold ADC value of 0.957×10 -3 mm2/s,the sensitivity and specificity for dif-ferentiating metastatic from non-metastatic lymph nodes were 90.5% and 80.8% respectively.The diagnostic value was excellent (Az value = 0.91 9,P <0.05).Conclusion ADC values may be used to differentiate lymph node metastasis of rectal cancer,and DWIBS has higher application value in assessing lymph node metastasis of rectal cancer.
